I have the following in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf (Xfree 4.X), and then I can u=
se=20
both a psm-tablet and an external USB-mouse (umsX) when plugged:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse1"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "Auto"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
EndSection

If you have Device "/dev/ums0" and Driver "Wacom", you at least have to kil=
l=20
the moused daemon that is opened on "/dev/ums0" by "usbd", but I am not sur=
e=20
if it will work. See "ps auxw | grep moused".
